What is an aggravation?

Some people taking a homeopathic remedy will notice that their symptoms get worse before they get better. We call this a homeopathic aggravation and consider it to be a very good sign. It means you are responding deeply to the treatment and can expect to see improvement shortly.

Aggravations:

Begin within the first 72 hours of taking the homeopathic remedy. A worsening of your symptoms after this time is less likely to be an aggravation.

Tend to be mild and to last no more than a few days. Infrequently, they can be more intense and last longer. If this is the case, you should call us.

Many people have commented that, in the end, they truly enjoyed the initial consultation and already felt more optimistic and hopeful even before beginning treatment. Most of all, be prepared to interact with a doctor that is keenly interested in what you have to say and determined to see you get better.
